Caffyns Tonbridge

Just asking...
Anyone have any old photos or information regarding Caffyns garage of Tonbridge Kent?
My four door Maisie was supplied new by them and registered 1st April 1965.
Interestingly, Maisie has a “Webasto continental sun roof” with a plaque mentioning that it was fitted by Caffyns coach works Folkestone, so was most likely a customer requested fitment from new.
Again if anyone remembers or has photos of this garage I would appreciate it.

Thanks,
Mark

Thanks Phil
I have read this through some time ago, but wondered if anyone had a bit of “local knowledge”.
Being a Sussex lad, I knew Caffyns of Hove, Brighton, Worthing and Eastbourne, but not Kent.
They were huge for many years.
